course Phy 231 6/24 5:45 015. Impulse-Momentum Question: `q001. Note that this assignment contains 5 questions.
.............................................
Given Solution: The acceleration of the object will be accel = net force / mass = 10 Newtons / (2 kg) = 5 m/s^2. In 3 seconds this implies a change of velocity `dv = 5 m/s^2 * 3 s = 15 meters/second. Self-critique (if necessary): OK Self-critique rating #$&* OK ********************************************* Question: `q002. By how much did the quantity m * v change during these three seconds? What is the product Fnet * `dt of the net force and the time interval during which it acted? How do these two quantities compare? Your solution: 3kg(0m/s) = 0 2kg(15m/s) = 30 kg m/s 10N * 3s = 30 kg m/s The quantities are the same confidence rating #$&*: 3 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.............................................
Given Solution: Since m remained constant at 2 kg and v changed by `dv = 15 meters/second, it follows that m * v changed by 2 kg * 15 meters/second = 30 kg meters/second. Fnet *`dt is 10 Newtons * 3 seconds = 30 Newton * seconds = 30 kg meters/second^2 * seconds = 30 kg meters/second. The two quantities m * `dv and Fnet * `dt are identical. Self-critique (if necessary): OK Self-critique rating #$&* OK ********************************************* Question: `q003. The quantity m * v is called the momentum of the object. The quantity Fnet * `dt is called the impulse of the net force. The Impulse-Momentum Theorem states that the change in the momentum of an object during a time interval `dt must be equal to the impulse of the average net force during that time interval. Note that it is possible for an impulse to be delivered to a changing mass, so that the change in momentum is not always simply m * `dv; however in non-calculus-based physics courses the effective changing mass will not be considered. If an average net force of 2000 N is applied to a 1200 kg vehicle for 1.5 seconds, what will be the impulse of the force? Your solution: 2000N * 1.5s = 3000 kg m/s confidence rating #$&*: 3 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.............................................
Given Solution: The impulse of the force will be Fnet * `dt = 2000 Newtons * 1.5 seconds = 3000 Newton*seconds = 3000 kg meters/second. Note that the 1200 kg mass has nothing to do with the magnitude of the impulse. &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& Self-critique (if necessary): OK Self-critique rating #$&* OK ********************************************* Question: `q004. If an average net force of 2000 N is applied to a 1200 kg vehicle for 1.5 seconds, what will be change in the velocity of the vehicle? Your solution: Impulse = 2000N *1.5s = 3000 kg m/s 3000kg m/s = 1200kg * v V = 2.5 m/s confidence rating #$&*: 3 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.............................................
Given Solution: The impulse of the 2000 Newton force is equal to the change in the momentum of the vehicle. The impulse is impulse = Fnet * `dt = 2000 Newtons * 1.5 seconds = 3000 Newton*seconds = 3000 kg meters/second. The change in momentum is m * `dv = 1200 kg * `dv. Thus 1200 kg * `dv = 3000 kg m/s, so `dv = 3000 kg m/s / (1200 kg) = 2.5 m/s. In symbols we have Fnet * `dt = m `dv so that `dv = Fnet * `dt / m. Self-critique (if necessary): OK Self-critique rating #$&* OK ********************************************* Question: `q005. Use the Impulse-Momentum Theorem to determine the average force required to change the velocity of a 1600 kg vehicle from 20 m/s to 25 m/s in 2 seconds. Your solution: Dv = 5m/s Momentum = 5m/s * 1600kg = 8000 kg m/s 8000 kg m/s = Fnet * 2s Fnet = 4000 kg m = 4000N confidence rating #$&*: 3 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.............................................
Given Solution: The vehicle changes velocity by 5 meters/second so the change in its momentum is m * `dv = 1600 kg * 5 meters/second = 8000 kg meters/second. This change in momentum is equal to the impulse Fnet * `dt, so Fnet * 2 sec = 8000 kg meters/second and so Fnet = 8000 kg meters/second / (2 seconds) = 4000 kg meters/second^2 = 4000 Newtons. In symbols we have Fnet * `dt = m * `dv so that Fnet = m * `dv / `dt = 1600 kg * 5 m/s / ( 2 s) = 4000 kg m/s^2 = 4000 N. &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& Self-critique (if necessary): OK Self-critique rating #$&* OK "
